The Dakota Scout has a story on it’s website today noting how when Toby Doeden reported a $100,000 donation to his Political Action Committee that he didn’t intend it to be a donation, and was rather “a loan.” And of course, it’s everyone else’s fault: “I spoke with the folks from the finance team and […]
Remember back on May 17th, when I did a post on Toby Doeden’s PAC filing a document that noted a $100,000 donation from him to his “Dakota First Action” PAC?

Justin is making us wait for his campaign finance disclosure report. And you’re probably saying “who’s that?” Justin. Justin McNeal.. you know who that is, don’t you? You probably don’t even though he’s been running for Congress since about the 28th of December. According to his bio, Justin McNeal was born in Illinois and was raised […]
If you recall, I had reported about a month ago that former District 14 Legislative Candidate Brad Lindwurm had declared his candidacy for the State House..
